WW2 British Canadian Rifle Regiment Officers Lieutenant Pips Set

The WW2 British Canadian Rifle Regiment Officers Lieutenant Pips Set comprises two insignia pieces, commonly known as “pips,” used during the Second World War to denote the rank of Lieutenant within British and Canadian rifle regiments. These pips are typically constructed from brass or white metal and feature the stylized Bath Star design unique to officers’ rank insignia in Commonwealth armies. The set would have been worn on the epaulettes of the uniform jacket, distinguishing the wearer’s commissioned status and specific rank. Canadian and British officers shared uniform standards, with minor variations in manufacturing details depending on the regiment and supply sources. These insignia are often collected for their historical significance and as examples of period military sartorial practice. This particular set is representative of the standard-issue accoutrements used by rifle regiment officers of the era. Suitable for collectors, historians, and those interested in military regalia from the WWII period.
